Answer: The red litmus paper turns blue on dipping in NaOH solution.

Explanation:

Litmus paper is the indicator that detects the nature of the solution, whether it is acidic or basic.

There are 2 types of litmus paper:

  • Red litmus paper: This paper will turn blue if it is dipped in basic solution and will remain as such if it is dipped in acidic solution.
  • Blue litmus paper: This paper will turn red if it is dipped in acidic solution and will remain as such if it is dipped in basic solution.

NaOH is a strong base, so when a red litmus paper is dipped in the beaker having necessary amount of NaOH, the red litmus paper turns into blue.
